Having your own blog this days can be a piece of cake, as there are a lot of hosting packages to choose from and also they are very cheap. Like I said, having a blog it’s not a big deal, but having a dedicated server or VPS with your own custom setup can be some what difficult to achieve. I’m talking about a setup which includes nginx as a web server, php-fpm as a back-end php server and mysql server as a database server. The easy way how to do this, could be by installing this packages from the distro’s repository, but again, is this case I will do it from the source code.

To start with this, we need a VPS or dedicated server, which can be a problem, because can cost some money. A VPS can cost from about $20 and up and you’ll get with this money about 256MB of RAM and maybe 10-20GB of disk space. If you need something better or faster, a dedicated server would do the job and the price for having a dedicated server would easily start from $50 and up.
